Rwandan genocide suspect Felicien Kabuga believes he won't receive a fair trial in an international court, which he would consider politically biased, whereas he thinks he could have one in France, his lawyer said on Wednesday.

A few moments earlier Kabuga told a French court that the international charges against him were lies.

Kabuga, who was arrested near Paris earlier this month after more than two decades on the run, is accused of financing and arming the ethnic Hutu militias that slaughtered some 800,000 Tutsi and moderate Hutus in 1994.

Why is the man even going on trial, that warlord dictator should just be hanged. I wonder how monsters like him manage to go to sleep at night, knowing he murdered masses of innocent people. I rite somewhere he was living large in France,before his arrest.
